Not all audio cables are the same: At Piranha we use the highest quality Polyamide sheathed cable with multi-strand, oxygen free, copper cores. Our cable is manufactured using braided shields made up with a huge number of very thin strands which provide an amazing 99% coverage, while still allowing maximum flexibility. To minimize noise a cable has to be mechanically stable, so all our microphone cables have fibre fillers which pack out the jacket to ensure that they hold their dimensions and remain stable in all situations. The fillers also prevent stretching and slipping which can induce mechanical noise. Audio cables are required to carry very low-level signals, which are typically in the range of -70dB to -120dB. This makes them very susceptible to electromagnetic interference and to capacitance changes caused by vibration, flexing and even temperature changes. Simply handling a cable can cause noise. The solution to these problems lie in the design and quality of the cable, and Piranha cables have been carefully designed and manufactured without compromise, for maximum performance and reliability. The result is the perfect audio cable: rugged, supple, with built-in reliability and astounding performance, guaranteed by the brand you can trust.
